Single-cell transcriptomics reveals heterogeneity and intercellular crosstalk in human intervertebral disc degeneration.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 38 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The complexity of the human intervertebral disc (IVD) has hindered the elucidation of the microenvironment and mechanisms underlying IVD degeneration (IVDD). Here we determined the landscapes of nucleus pulposus (NP), annulus fibrosus (AF), and immunocytes in human IVD by scRNA-seq. Six NP subclusters and seven AF subclusters were identified, whose functional differences and distribution during different stages of degeneration (Pfirrmann I-V) were investigated. We found MCAM
